    No. 2 is definitely sharper and more presentable but doesn't look over sharpened.

      I agree with David, it doesn't look over sharpened at all.

        I would say you have got number 2 just about right. I always give an extra little sharpening for the web. They are generally such small sizes and resolution that they need a little help on the sharpening side.

          I too agree that the second pic is sharper and far better.

                Your 2nd image looks better to me too. The bird itself looks much sharper and more presentable, although a slight trade off is a little more pixelation to the general image. It's worth it though.

                      I've learned something here - thanks for the experiment, Alan. A little extra sharpening it is from now on
